Third-party reviews

Based on ratings from across the web.
Reviews last updated: November 2026 · How we calculate this

What customers like about Huawei Honor Pad X8 WiFi (4GB + 64GB)

  • Excellent value for money and affordable pricing
  • Slim, lightweight, and premium-feeling metal design
  • Clear 10.1-inch FHD display with good resolution and color reproduction
  • Easy and straightforward initial setup and navigation
  • Reliable battery life for daily tasks and video streaming
  • Decent audio quality from dual large-amplitude speakers
  • Smooth performance for everyday tasks like browsing and YouTube

What customers don't like about Huawei Honor Pad X8 WiFi (4GB + 64GB)

  • Underpowered processor not suitable for high-end or intensive 3D gaming
  • Disappointing front and rear camera quality (5MP/2MP)
  • Limited internal storage (often 32GB or 64GB) requiring an SD card for media
  • Lack of a 3.5mm headphone jack
  • Slow charging speeds compared to competitors
  • Lack of biometric security features like a fingerprint sensor
  • Software experience (MagicUI) can feel like a scaled-up smartphone interface

Verdict

The Honor Pad X8 is a budget-friendly 10.1-inch tablet featuring a FullView IPS LCD display with a 1920 x 1200 resolution and an 80% screen-to-body ratio. It is powered by a MediaTek MT8786 octa-core processor paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage, which is expandable up to 512GB via microSD. Running on Magic UI 6.1 (based on Android 12), the device supports multitasking features like split-screen and includes dual high-amplitude speakers with HONOR Histen audio technology. Its main pros include a slim 7.55mm aluminium body, lightweight 460g design, and TÃœV Rheinland-certified eye protection modes for comfortable reading. However, notable cons include a relatively modest 5,100 mAh battery with slow 10W charging, the absence of a 3.5mm headphone jack, and cameras (5MP rear/2MP front) that offer only basic performance.
